General Description The ATA5823/ATA5824 is a highly integrated UHF ASK/FSK multi-channel half-duplex and full-duplex transceiver with low power consumption supplied in a small 7 mm × 7 mm QFN48 package. The receive part is built as a fully integrated low-IF receiver, whereas direct PLL modulation with the fractional-N synthesizer is used for FSK transmission and switching of the power amplifier for ASK transmission. The additional full-duplex mode makes relay attacks much more difficult, since the attacker has to receive and transmit signals on the same frequency at the same time. The device supports data rates of 1 Kbit/s to 20 Kbit/s (FSK) and 1 Kbit/s to 10 Kbit/s (ASK) in Manchester, Bi-phase and other codes in transparent mode. The ATA5824 can be used in the 433 MHz to 435 MHz band and the 867 MHz to 870 MHz band, the ATA5823 in the 313 MHz to 316 MHz band. The very high system integration level results in few numbers of external components needed. Due to its blocking and selectivity performance, together with a typical narrow-band key-fob loop antenna with 15 dB to 20 dB loss, a bulky blocking SAW is not needed in the key fob application. Additionally, the building blocks needed for a typical RKE and access control system on both sides, the base and the mobile stations, are fully integrated. Its digital control logic with self polling and protocol generation provides a fast challenge response system without using a high-performance microcontroller. Therefore, the ATA5823/ATA5824 contains a FIFO buffer RAM and can compose and receive the physical messages themselves. This provides more time for the microcontroller to carry out other functions such as calculating crypto algorithms, composing the logical messages and controlling other devices. Due to that, a standard 4-/8-bit microcontroller without special periphery and clocked with the delivered CLK output of about 4.5 MHz is sufficient to control the communication link. This is especially valid for passive entry go and access control systems, where within less than 100 ms several communication responses with arbitration of the communication partner have to be handled. It is hence possible to design bi-directional RKE and passive entry go systems with a fast challenge response crypto function and prevention against relay attacks. 2 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Figure 1-1.

The external components are 10 capacitors, 1 resistor, 2 inductors and a crystal. C1 to C3 are 68 nF voltage supply blocking capacitors. C5 is a 10 nF supply blocking capacitor. C6 is a 15 nF fixed capacitor used for the internal quasi-peak detector and for the high-pass frequency of the data filter. C7 to C11 are RF matching capacitors in the range of 1 pF to 33 pF. L1 is a matching inductor of about 5.6 nH to 56 nH. L2 is a feed inductor of about 120 nH. A load capacitor of 9 pF for the crystal is integrated. R1 is typically 22 kΩ and sets the output power to about 5.5 dBm. The loop antenna’s quality factor is somewhat reduced by this application due to the quality factor of L2 and the RX/TX switch. On the other hand, this lower quality factor is necessary to have a robust design with a bandwidth that is wide enough for production tolerances. Due to the single-ended and ground-referenced design, the loop antenna can be a free-form wire around the application as it is usually employed in RKE unidirectional systems. The ATA5823/ATA5824 provides sufficient isolation and robust pulling behavior of internal circuits from the supply voltage as well as an integrated VCO inductor to allow this. Since the efficiency of a loop antenna is proportional to the square of the surrounded area, it is beneficial to have a large loop around the application board with a lower quality factor to relax the tolerance specification of the RF matching components and to get a high antenna efficiency in spite of their lower quality factor. 6 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 4.

The external components are 11 capacitors, 1 resistor, 4 inductors, a SAW filter and a crystal. C1, C3 and C4 are 68 nF voltage supply blocking capacitors. C2 is a 2.2 µF supply blocking capacitor for the internal voltage regulator. C5 is a 10 nF supply blocking capacitor. C6 is a 15 nF fixed capacitor used for the internal quasi-peak detector and for the high-pass frequency of the data filter. C7 to C11 are RF matching capacitors in the range of 1 pF to 33 pF. L2 to L4 are matching inductors of about 5.6 nH to 56 nH. A load capacitor for the crystal of 9 pF is integrated. R1 is typically 22 kΩ and sets the output power at RFOUT to about 10 dBm. Since a quarter wave or PCB antenna, which has high efficiency and wideband operation, is typically used here, it is recommended to use a SAW filter to achieve high sensitivity in case of powerful out-of-band blockers. L1, C10 and C9 together form a low-pass filter, which is needed to filter out the harmonics in the transmitted signal to meet regulations. 7 4829D–RKE–06/06 5.

C4 is a 15 nF fixed capacitor used for the internal quasi-peak detector and for the high-pass frequency of the data filter. C5, C6, C8 and C9 are RF matching capacitors in the range of 1 pF to 33 pF. L2 is a feed inductor of about 120 nH. C10 is a 10 nF capacitor which is necessary to prevent that signals couple into the pin R_PWR, causing amplitude modulation of the output power and a spurious rise of the transmitted signal. R1 and C10 should be placed close to the R_PWR pin. A load capacitor of 9 pF for the crystal is integrated. R1 is typically 22 kΩ and SETPWR is programmed to get an output power of –7 dBm in full-duplex mode and 5 dBm in half-duplex mode. The quality factor of the loop antenna 1 is only reduced by the quality factor of L2, the tolerances of C9 and C8 are thus important. The quality factor of the loop antenna 2 is reduced to half due to the loading with the input impedance of RF_IN. With well designed loop antennas and the correct degree of overlapping, the isolation between RF_OUT and RF_IN is about 28 dB and the coupled output power from RF_OUT to RF_IN is about –35 dBm. The decoupling of two loop antennas situated close to each other is due to the effect that the magnetic flux from the part of loop antenna 1 that does not overlap and that of the overlapping part has an opposite direction. Depending on the relative position between the two antennas, a decoupling of 28 dB is achievable. Due to additional capacitive coupling between the loops the position of the components C5, C6 and C8, C9 are also important. The receive Sensitivity in full-duplex mode is reduced from –106 dBm without coupled RF-Power at RF_IN to –96 dBm with –35 dBm coupled RF power at RF_IN. 8 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 6.

The external components are 11 capacitors, 1 resistor, 3 inductors, a SAW Filter and a crystal. C1, C3 and C4 are 68 nF voltage supply blocking capacitors. C2 is a 2.2 µF supply blocking capacitors for the internal voltage regulator. C5 is a 10 nF supply blocking capacitor. C6 is a 15 nF fixed capacitor used for the internal quasi-peak detector and for the high-pass frequency of the data filter. C7 to C10 are RF matching capacitors in the range of 1 pF to 33 pF. L1 is a feed inductor of about 120 nH, L2 and L3 are matching inductors to match the RX-antenna to the SAW and the SAW to RF_IN. A load capacitor of 9 pF for the crystal is integrated. C11 is a 10 nF capacitor which is necessary to prevent that signals couple into the pin R_PWR, causing amplitude modulation of the output power and a spurious rise of the transmitted signal. R1 and C11 should be placed close to the R_PWR pin. R1 is typically 22 kΩ and SETPWR is programmed to get an output power of 0 dBm in full-duplex mode and 5 dBm in half-duplex mode. The quality factor of the TX-loop antenna is only reduced by the quality factor of L1, the tolerances of C9 and C10 are thus important. Since the 2 Antennas are located at different places the isolation between RF_OUT and RF_IN is about 45 dB and the coupled output power from RF_OUT to RF_IN is about –45 dBm. The receive Sensitivity in full-duplex mode is reduced from –106 dBm without coupled RF power at RF_IN to –102 dBm with –45 dBm coupled RF power at RF_IN. The use of SAW filters in the full-duplex system is unsuitable due to the high group delay which desensitize the receiver. 9 4829D–RKE–06/06 7. RF Transceiver in Half-duplex Mode According to Figure 2-2 on page 5, the RF transceiver consists of an LNA (Low-Noise Amplifier), PA (Power Amplifier), RX/TX switch, fractional-N frequency synthesizer and the signal processing part with mixer, IF filter, IF amplifier with analog RSSI, FSK/ASK demodulator, data filter and data slicer. In receive mode the LNA pre-amplifies the received signal which is converted down to 226 kHz intermediate frequency (IF), filtered and amplified before it is fed into an FSK/ASK demodulator, data filter and data slicer. The RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) signal and the raw digital output signal of the demodulator are available at the pins RSSI and on TEST3 (open drain output). The demodulated data signal Demod_Out is fed into the digital control logic where it is evaluated and buffered as described in section “Digital Control Logic” on page 35. In transmit mode the fractional-N frequency synthesizer generates the TX frequency which is fed into the PA. In ASK mode the PA is modulated by the signal PA_Enable. In FSK mode the PA is enabled and the signal TX_DATA (FSK) modulates the fractional-N frequency synthesizer. The frequency deviation is digitally controlled and internally fixed to about ±19.5 kHz (see Table 9-1 on page 30 for exact values). The transmit data can also be buffered as described in section “Digital Control Logic” on page 35. A lock detector within the synthesizer ensures that the transmission will only start if the synthesizer is locked. In half-duplex mode the RX/TX switch can be used to combine the LNA input and the PA output to a single antenna with a minimum of losses. In full-duplex mode more isolation between receive and transmit antenna is needed, therefore two antennas have to be used. Transparent modes without buffering of RX and TX data are also available to allow protocols and coding schemes other than the internal supported Manchester encoding, like PWM and pulse position coding. 7.1 Low-IF Receiver The receive path consists of a fully integrated low-IF receiver. It fulfills the sensitivity, blocking, selectivity, supply voltage and supply current specification needed to manufacture an automotive key fob for RKE and PEG systems without the use of a SAW blocking filter (see Figure 3-1 on page 6 and Figure 5-1 on page 8). The receiver can be connected to the roof antenna in the car when using an additional blocking SAW front-end filter as shown in Figure 4-1 on page 7. At 433.92 MHz the receiver has a typical system noise figure of 6.5 dB, a system I1dBCP of –30 dBm and a system IIP3 of –20 dBm. The signal path is linear for disturbers up to the I1dBCP and there is hence no AGC or switching of the LNA needed to achieve a better blocking performance. This receiver uses an IF of about 226 kHz (see table “Electrical Characteristics” number 2.10 for exact values), the typical image rejection is 30 dB and the typical 3 dB system bandwidth is 220 kHz (f I F = 226 kHz ±110 kHz, f lo _ I F = 116 kHz and f h i_ I F = 336 kHz). The demodulator needs a signal to noise ratio of 8 dB for 20 Kbit/s Manchester with ±19.5 kHz frequency deviation in FSK mode, thus, the resulting sensitivity at 433.92 MHz is typically –105.5 dBm. Due to the low phase noise and spurious of the synthesizer in receive mode(1) together with the eighth order integrated IF filter the receiver has a better selectivity and blocking performance than more complex double superhet receivers, without using external components and without numerous spurious receiving frequencies. Note: 1. –120 dBC/Hz at ±1 MHz and –72 dBC at ±fXTO at 433.92 MHz 10 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 A low-IF architecture is also less sensitive to second-order intermodulation (IIP2) than direct conversion receivers where every pulse or amplitude modulated signal (especially the signals from TDMA systems like GSM) demodulates to the receiving signal band at second-order non-linearities. 7.2 Input Matching at RF_IN The measured input impedances as well as the values of a parallel equivalent circuit of these impedances can be seen in Table 7-1. The highest sensitivity is achieved with power matching of these impedances to the source impedance of 50Ω. Table 7-1. Measured Input Impedances of the RF_IN Pin fRF/MHz 315 433.92 868.3 ZIn(RF_IN) (44-j233)Ω (32-j169)Ω (21-j78)Ω RIn_p//CIn_p 1278Ω//2.1 pF 925Ω//2.1 pF 311Ω//2.2 pF The matching of the LNA Input to 50Ω was done with the circuit according to Figure 7-1 and with the values of the matching elements given in Table 7-2. The reflection coefficients were always ≤ –10 dB. Note that value changes of C1 and L1 may be necessary to compensate individual board layout parasitics. The measured typical FSK and ASK Manchester code sensitivities with a Bit Error Rate (BER) of 10-3 are shown in Table 7-3 on page 12 and Table 7-4 on page 12. These measurements were done with multilayer inductors having quality factors according to Table 7-2, resulting in estimated matching losses of 0.8 dB at 315 MHz, 0.8 dB at 433.92 MHz and 0.7 dB at 868.3 MHz. These losses can be estimated when calculating the parallel equivalent resistance of the inductor with R loss = 2 × π × f × L × Q L a nd the matching loss with 10 log(1+RIn_p/Rloss). With an ideal inductor, for example, the sensitivity at 433.92 MHz/FSK/20 Kbit/s/ ±19.5 kHz/Manchester can be improved from –105.5 dBm to –106.7 dBm. The sensitivity also depends on the values in the registers of the control logic which examines the incoming data stream. The examination limits must be programmed in control registers 5 and 6. The measurements in Table 7-3 and Table 7-4 on page 12 are based on the values of registers 5 and 6 according to Table 14-3 on page 60. Figure 7-1.

The most important are frequency offset due to crystal oscillator (XTO) and crystal frequency (XTAL) errors, temperature and supply voltage dependency of the noise figure and IF filter bandwidth of the receiver. Figure 7-2 shows the typical sensitivity at 433.92 MHz/FSK/20 Kbit/s/±19.5 kHz/Manchester versus the frequency offset between transmitter and receiver at T amb = – 40°C, +25°C and +105°C and supply voltage VS = VS1 = VS2 = 2.15V, 3.0V and 3.6V.

The temperature has an influence of about +1.5/ –0.7 dB and a frequency offset of ±85 kHz also influences by about ±1 dB. All these influences, combined with the sensitivity of a typical IC (–105.5dBm), are then within a range of –102.5 dBm and –107 dBm overtemperature, supply voltage and frequency offset. The integrated IF filter has an additional production tolerance of ±10 kHz, hence, a frequency offset between the receiver and the transmitter of ±75 kHz can be accepted for XTAL and XTO tolerances. Note: For the demodulator used in the ATA5823/ATA5824, the tolerable frequency offset does not change with the data frequency, hence, the value of ±75 kHz is valid for 1 Kbit/s to 20 Kbit/s. This small sensitivity change over supply voltage, frequency offset and temperature is very unusual in such a receiver. It is achieved by an internal, very fast and automatic frequency correction in the FSK demodulator after the IF filter, which leads to a higher system margin. This frequency correction tracks the input frequency very quickly, if however, the input frequency makes a larger step (e.g., if the system changes between different communication partners), the receiver has to be restarted. This can be done by switching back to IDLE mode and then again to RX mode. For that purpose, an automatic mode is also available. This automatic mode switches to IDLE mode and back into RX mode every time a bit error occurs (see section “Digital Control Logic” on page 35). 7.4 Frequency Accuracy of the Crystals in Bi-directional RKE/PEG The XTO is an amplitude regulated Pierce type oscillator with integrated load capacitors. The initial tolerances (due to the frequency tolerance of the XTAL, the integrated capacitors on XTAL1, XTAL2 and the XTO’s initial transconductance gm) can be compensated to a value within ±0.5 ppm by measuring the CLK output frequency and tuning of fRF by programming the control registers 2 and 3 (see Table 12-7 on page 38 and Table 12-10 on page 39). The XTO then has a remaining influence of less than ±2 ppm overtemperature and supply voltage due to the bandgap controlled gm of the XTO. Thus only 2.5 ppm add to the frequency stability of the used crystals overtemperature and aging. The needed frequency stability of the used crystals o vertemperature and aging is hence ±75 kHz/433.92 MHz – 2 × ±2.5 ppm = ±167.84 ppm for 433.92 MHz and ±75 kHz/868.3 MHz – 2 × ±2.5 ppm = ±81.4 ppm for 868.3 MHz. Thus, the used crystals in receiver and transmitter each need to be better than ±83.9 ppm for 433.92 MHz and ±40.7 ppm for 868.3 MHz. 7.5 Frequency Accuracy of the Crystals in a Combined RKE/PEG and TPM System In a tire pressure measurement system working at 433.92 MHz and using a TPM transmitter ATA5757 and a transceiver ATA5824 as a receiver, the higher frequency tolerances and the tolerance of the frequency deviation of this transmitter has to be considered. In the TPM transmitter the crystal has an frequency error overtemperature –40°C to +125°C, aging and tolerance of ±80 ppm (±34.7 kHz at 433.92 MHz). The tolerances of the XTO, the capacitors used for FSK-Modulation and the stray capacitors, causing an additional frequency error of ±30 ppm (±13 kHz at 433.92 MHz). The frequency deviation of such a transmitter varies between ±16 kHz and ±24 kHz, since a higher frequency deviation is equivalent to an frequency error, this has to be considered as an additional ±24 kHz – ±19.5 kHz = ±4.5kHz frequency tolerance. All tolerances added, these transmitters have a worst case frequency offset of ±52.2 kHz. 13 4829D–RKE–06/06 For the transceiver in the car a tolerance of ±75 kHz – ±52.2 kHz = ±22.8 kHz (±52.5 ppm) remains. The needed frequency stability of the used crystals overtemperature and aging is ±52.5 ppm – ±2.5 ppm = ±50 ppm. The aging of such a crystal is ±10 ppm leaving reasonable ±40 ppm for the temperature dependency of the crystal frequency in the car. Since the transceiver in the car is able to receive these TPM transmitter signals with high frequency offsets, the component specification in the key can be largely relaxed. This system calculation is based on worst case tolerances of all the components, this leads in practice to a system with margin. For a 315 MHz TPM system using a TPM transmitter ATA5756 and a transceiver ATA5823 as receiver the same calculation must be done, but since the RF frequency is lower, every ppm of crystal tolerances results in less frequency offset and either the system can have higher tolerances or a higher margin there. For 868 MHz it is not possible to use the transceiver ATA5824 in a combined RKE/PEG and TPM system since all the tolerances double because of the higher RF frequency. 7.6 RX Supply Current versus Temperature and Supply Voltage Table 7-5 shows the typical supply current at 433.92 MHz of the transceiver in RX mode versus supply voltage and temperature with V S = V S1 = V S2. As can be seen the supply current at VS = 2.15V and Tamb = –40°C is less than at VS = 3V/Tamb = 25° which helps to enlarge the battery lifetime within a key fob application because this is also the operation point where a lithium cell has the worst performance. The typical supply current at 315 MHz or 868.3 MHz in RX mode is about the same as for 433.92 MHz. Table 7-5. Measured 433.92 MHz Receive Supply Current in FSK mode 2.15V 8.2 mA 9.7 mA 11.2 mA 3.0V 8.8 mA 10.3 mA 11.9 mA 3.6V 9.2 mA 10.8 mA 12.4 mA VS = VS1 = VS2 Tamb = –40°C Tamb = 25°C Tamb = 105°C 7.7 Blocking, Selectivity As can be seen in Figure 7-3, Figure 7-4 and Figure 7-5 on page 15, the receiver can receive signals 3 dB higher than the sensitivity level in presence of large blockers of –44.5 dBm/-36.0 dBm with small frequency offsets of ±1/ ±10 MHz. Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4 on page 15 shows the close-in and narrow-band blocking and Figure 7-5 on page 15 the wide-band blocking characteristic. The measurements were done with a useful signal of 433.92 MHz/FSK/20 Kbit/s/±19.5 kHz/Manchester with a level of –105.5 dBm + 3 dB = –102.5 dBm which is 3 dB above the sensitivity level. The figures show by how much a continuous wave signal can be larger than –102.5 dBm until the BER is higher than 10-3. The measurements were done at the 50Ω input according to Figure 7-1 on page 11. At 1 MHz, for example, the blocker can be 58 dBC higher than –102.5 dBm which is –102.5 dBm +58 dBC = –44.5 dBm. These blocking figures, together with the good intermodulation performance, avoid the additional need of a SAW filter in the key fob application. 14 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Figure 7-3.

Note that sometimes the blocking is measured relative to the sensitivity level –105.5 dBm (denoted dBS) instead of the carrier –102.5 dBm (denoted dBC). Blocking 3 dB Above Sensitivity Level with BER < 10-3 Blocker Level –47.5 dBm –47.5 dBm –44.5 dBm –44.5 dBm –42.0 dBm –42.0 dBm –35.5 dBm –35.5 dBm Blocking 55.0 dBC/58.0 dBS 55.0 dBC/58.0 dBS 58.0 dBC/61.0 dBS 58.0 dBC/61.0 dBS 60.5 dBC/63.5 dBS 60.5 dBC/63.5 dBS 67.0 dBC/70.0 dBS 67.0 dBC/70.0 dBS +0.75 MHz –0.75 MHz +1.0 MHz –1.0 MHz +1.5 MHz –1.5 MHz +10 MHz –10 MHz Table 7-6. Frequency Offset The ATA5823/ATA5824 can also receive FSK and ASK modulated signals if they are much higher than the I1dBCP. It can typically receive useful signals at +10 dBm. This is often referred to as the nonlinear dynamic range which is the maximum to minimum receiving signal which is 115.5 dB for 433.92 MHz/FSK/20 Kbit/s/±19.5 kHz/ Manchester. This value is useful if two transceivers have to communicate and are very close to each other. In a keyless entry system there is another blocking characteristic that has to be considered. A keyless entry system has a typical service range of about 30 m with a receiver sensitivity of about –106 dBm to –109 dBm. In some cases, large blockers limit this service range, and it is important to know how large this blockers can be until the system doesn’t work anymore and the user has to use its key. With a recommended sensitivity of about –85 dBm, the system works just around the car. Figure 7-6 and Figure 7-7 on page 17 show the blocking performance in this important case with a useful signal of – 85dBm 433.92 MHz/FSK/20 Kbit/s/±19.5 kHz/ Manchester. As can be seen the system works even with blockers above the compression point. This is due to a wide bandwidth automatic gain control that begins to work if blockers above the compression point are at the antenna input and increasing the current in the LNA/Mixer to get a better compression point needed to handle these large blockers.

When designing such a LC filter, take into account that the 3 dB blocking at 433.92 MHz/2 = 216.96 MHz is 42 dBC and at 433.92 MHz/3 = 144.64 MHz is 47 dBC and at 2 × (433.92 MHz + 226 kHz) + –226 kHz = 868.066 MHz/868.518 MHz is 50 dBC. And especially that at 3 × (433.92 MHz + 226 kHz)+226 kHz = 1302.664 MHz the receiver has a second LO harmonic receiving frequency with only 17 dBC blocking. 7.8 Inband Disturbers, Data Filter, Quasi-peak Detector, Data Slicer If a disturbing signal falls into the received band, or a blocker is not a continuous wave, the performance of a receiver strongly depends on the circuits after the IF filter. Hence the demodulator, data filter and data slicer are important in that case. The data filter of the ATA5823/ATA5824 implies a quasi-peak detector. This results in a good suppression of above mentioned disturbers and exhibits a good carrier to noise performance. The required ratio of useful signal to disturbing signal, at a BER of 10-3 is less than 12 dB in ASK mode and less than 3 dB (BR_Range_0 ... BR_Range_2) and 6 dB (BR_Range_3) in FSK mode. Due to the many different possible waveforms these numbers are measured for signal as well as for disturbers with peak amplitude values. Note that these values are worst case values and are valid for any type of modulation and modulating frequency of the disturbing signal as well as the receiving signal. For many combinations, lower carrier to disturbing signal ratios are needed. 7.9 TEST3 Output The internal raw output signal of the demodulator Demod_Out is available at pin TEST3. TEST3 is an open drain output and must be connected to a pull-up resistor if it is used (typically 100 kΩ), otherwise no signal is present at that pin. This signal is mainly used for debugging purposes during the setup of a new application, since the received data signal can be seen there without any digital processing. 17 4829D–RKE–06/06 7.10 RSSI Output The output voltage of the pin RSSI is an analog voltage, proportional to the input power level. Using the RSSI output signal, the signal strength of different transmitters can be distinguished. The usable dynamic range of the RSSI amplifier is 70 dB, the input power range P RFIN i s –115 dBm to –45 dBm and the gain is 8 mV/dB. Figure 7-8 on page 18 shows the RSSI characteristic of a typical device at 433.92 MHz with VS1 = VS2 = 2.15V to 3.6V and Tamb = –40°C to +105°C with a matched input according to Table 7-2 on page 12 and Figure 7-1 on page 11. At 868.3 MHz about 2.7 dB more signal level and at 315 MHz about 1 dB less signal level is needed for the same RSSI results. Figure 7-8.

The XTO frequency fXTO is the reference frequency FREF for the synthesizer. The bits FR0 to FR12 in control registers 2 and 3 (see Table 12-7 on page 38 and Table 12-10 on page 39) are used to adjust the deviation of f XTO . In half-duplex transmit mode, at 433.92 MHz, the carrier has a phase noise of –111 dBC/Hz at 1 MHz and spurious at FREF of – 70 dBC with a high PLL loop bandwidth allowing the direct modulation of the carrier with 20 Kbit/s Manchester data. Due to the closed loop modulation, any spurious caused by this modulation are effectively filtered out as can be seen in Figure 7-11 on page 20. In RX mode the synthesizer has a phase noise of –120 dBC/Hz at 1 MHz and spurious of –72 dBC. The initial tolerances of the crystal oscillator due to crystal frequency tolerances, internal capacitor tolerances and the parasitics of the board have to be compensated at manufacturing setup with control registers 2 and 3 as can be seen in Table 9-1 on page 30. The other control words for the synthesizer needed for ASK, FSK and receive/transmit switching are calculated internally. The RF (Radio Frequency) resolution is equal to the XTO frequency divided by 16384 which is 777.1 Hz at 315.0 MHz, 808.9 Hz at 433.92 MHz and 818.59 Hz at 868.3 MHz. The frequency control word FREQ in control registers 2 and 3 can be programmed in the range of 1000 to 6900, hence every frequency within the 433 MHz and 868 MHz ISM bands can be programmed as receive and as transmit frequency and the position of channels within these ISM bands can be chosen arbitrarily (see Table 9-1 on page 30). 18 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Care must be taken regarding the harmonics of the CLK output signal as well as to the harmonics produced by a microprocessor clocked with it, since these harmonics can disturb the reception of signals. In a single channel system using FREQ = 3803 to 4053 ensures that harmonics of this signal, do not disturb the receive mode. 7.12 FSK/ASK Transmission Due to the fast modulation capability of the synthesizer and the high resolution, the carrier can be internally FSK modulated which simplifies the application of the transceiver. The deviation of the transmitted signal is ±24 digital frequency steps of the synthesizer which is equal to ±18.65 kHz for 315 MHz, ±19.41 kHz for 433.92 MHz and ±19.64 kHz for 868.3 MHz. Due to closed loop modulation with PLL filtering, the modulated spectrum is very clean, meeting ETSI and CEPT regulations when using a simple LC filter for the power amplifier harmonics as it is shown in Figure 4-1. In ASK mode the frequency is internally connected to the center of the FSK transmission and the power amplifier is switched on and off to perform the modulation. Figure 7-9 to Figure 7-11 on page 20 show the spectrum of the FSK modulation with pseudo-random data with 20 Kbit/s/±19.41 kHz/Manchester and 5 dBm output power. Figure 7-9.

Resistor R1 (see Figure 7-12 on page 22) sets a reference current which controls the current in the PA. A higher resistor value results in a lower reference current, a lower output power and a lower current consumption of the PA. The usable range of R1 is 15 kΩ to 56 kΩ. The PWR_H pin switches the output power range between about 0 dBm to 5 dBm (PWR_H = GND) and 5 dBm to 10 dBm (PWR_H = AVCC) by multiplying this reference current with a factor 1 (PWR_H = GND) and 2.5 (PWR_H = AVCC) which corresponds to about 5 dB more output power. If the PA is switched off in TX mode, the current consumption without output stage and with VS1 = VS2 = 3V, Tamb = 25°C is typically 6.5 mA for 868.3 MHz and 6.95 mA for 315 MHz and 433.92 MHz. The maximum output power is achieved with optimum load resistances RLopt according to Table 7-7 on page 22. The compensation of the 1.0 pF output capacitance of the RF_OUT pin will be achieved by absorbing it into the matching network, consisting of L1, C1, C3 as shown in Figure 7-12 on page 22. There must be also a low resistive DC path to AVCC to deliver the DC current of the power amplifier's last stage. The matching of the PA output was done with the circuit according to Figure 7-12 on page 22 with the values in Table 7-7. Note that value changes of these elements may be necessary to compensate individual board layout parasitics. Example: According to Table 7-7 on page 22, with a frequency of 433.92 MHz and output power of 11 dBm, the overall current consumption is typically 17.8 mA. Hence the PA needs 17.8 mA - 6.95 mA = 10.85 mA in this mode which corresponds to an overall power amplifier efficiency of the PA of (10(11dBm/10) × 1 mW)/(3V × 10.85 mA) × 100% = 38.6% in this case. Using a higher resistor in this example of R1 = 1.091 × 22 kΩ = 24 kΩ results in 9.1% less current in the PA of 10.85 mA/1.091 = 9.95 mA and 10 × log(1.091) = 0.38 dB less output power if using a new load resistance of 300 Ω × 1.091 = 327 Ω. The resulting output power is then 11 dBm – 0.38 dB = 10.6 dBm and the overall current consumption is 6.95 mA + 9.95 mA = 16.9 mA. The values of Table 7-7 on page 22 were measured with standard multi-layer chip inductors with quality factors Q according to Table 7-7 on page 22. Looking to the 433.92 MHz/11 dBm case with the quality factor of QL1 = 43 the loss in this inductor L1 is estimated with the parallel equivalent resistance of the inductor Rloss = 2 × π × f × L1 × QL1 and the matching loss with 10 log (1 + RLopt/Rloss) which is equal to 0.32 dB losses in this inductor. Taking this into account the PA efficiency is then 42% instead of 38.6%. Be aware that the high power mode (PWR_H = AVCC) can only be used with a supply voltage higher than 2.7V, whereas the low power mode (PWR_H = GND) can be used down to 2.15V as can be seen in the section “Electrical Characteristics: General” on page 72. The supply blocking capacitor C2 (10 nF) in Figure 7-12 on page 22 has to be placed close to the matching network because of the RF current flowing through it. 21 4829D–RKE–06/06 An internal programmable resistor SETPWR is programmable with the control register 8, described in Table 12-25 on page 43. It can be used in conjunction with an external resistor to adjust the output power by connection it like in the application Figure 5-1 on page 8 or Figure 6-1 on page 9. To do that the output power should be adjusted with an external resistor about 50% lower than needed for the target output power and reduced with the programmable resistor during production test until the target power is as close as possible to the target. For example, if using 433.92 MHz at 5 dBm, a resistor of 12k instead of 24k is used and values of PWSET between 25 and 29 can be used to achieve an output power within 5 dBm ±0.5 dB over production. In full-duplex mode this internal resistor is used to reduce the output power for full-duplex operation versus the power in half-duplex operation. Note that this resistor is temperature stable but has tolerances of ±20% and introduces, therefore, additional output power tolerances, it is recommended to adjust output power during the production test if using the SETPWR resistor.

As opposed to the receiver sensitivity the supply voltage has here the major impact on output power variations because of the large signal behavior of a power amplifier. Thus a 5V system using the internal voltage regulator shows much less variation than a 2.15V to 3.6V battery system because the AVCC supply voltage is 3.25V ±0.25V for a 5V system. The reason is that the amplitude at the output RF_OUT with optimum load resistance is AVCC – 0.4V and the power is proportional to (AVCC – 0.4V)2 if the load impedance is not changed. This means that the theoretical output power reduction if reducing the supply voltage from 3.0V to 2.15V is 10 log ((3V – 0.4V)2/(2.15V – 0.4V)2) = 3.4 dB. Table 7-8 shows that principle behavior in the measurements. This is not the same case for higher voltages, since here, increasing the supply voltage from 3V to 3.6V should theoretical increase the power by 1.8 dB, but only 0.9 dB in the measurements shows that the amplitude does not increase with the supply voltage because the load impedance is optimized for 3V and the output amplitude stays more constant because of the current source nature of the output. .

As can be seen, a temperature change to –40°C as well as to +105°C reduces the power by less than 1 dB due to the band-gap regulated output current. Measurements of all the cases in Table 7-7 on page 22 overtemperature and supply voltage have shown about the same relative behavior as shown in Table 7-9. Table 7-9.

To do this, it has a low impedance to GND in TX mode and a high impedance to GND in RX mode. The pin 38 (RX_TX2) must always be connected to GND in the application. To design a proper RX/TX decoupling a linear simulation tool for radio frequency design together with the measured device impedances of Table 7-1 on page 11, Table 7-7 on page 22, Table 7-10 on page 24 and Table 7-11 on page 25 should be used. The exact element values have to be found on board. Figure 7-13 on page 24 shows an approximate equivalent circuit of the switch. The principal switching operation is described here according to the application of Figure 3-1 on page 6. The application of Figure 4-1 on page 7 works similarly. . Table 7-10.

Equivalent Circuit of the Switch RX_TX1 1.6 nH 2.5 pF TX 5Ω 11 Ω 7.16 Matching Network in TX Mode In TX mode the 20 mm long and 0.4 mm wide transmission line which is much shorter than λ/4 is approximately switched in parallel to the capacitor C9 to GND. The antenna connection between C8 and C9 has an impedance of about 50Ω looking from the transmission line into the loop antenna with pin RF_OUT, L2, C10, C8 and C9 connected (using a C9 without the added 7.6 pF capacitor as discussed later). The transmission line can be approximated with a 16 nH inductor in series with a 1.5Ω resistor, the closed switch can be approximated according to Table 7-10 with the series connection of 1.6 nH and 5Ω in this mode. To have a parallel resonant high impedance circuit with little RF power going into it looking, from the loop antenna into the transmission line a capacitor of about 7.6 pF to GND is needed at the beginning of the transmission line (this capacitor is later absorbed into C9, which is then higher as needed for 50Ω transformation). To keep the 50Ω impedance in RX mode at the end of this transmission line C7 has to be also about 7.6 pF. This reduces the TX power by about 0.5 dB at 433.92 MHz compared to the case where the LNA path is completely disconnected. 24 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 7.17 Matching Network in RX Mode In RX mode the RF_OUT pin has a high impedance of about 7 kΩ in parallel with 1.0 pF at 433.92 MHz as can be seen in Table 7-11 on page 25. This together with the losses of the inductor L2 with 120 nH and QL2 = 25 gives about 3.7 kΩ loss impedance at RF_OUT. Since the optimum load impedance in TX mode for the power amplifier at RF_OUT is 890Ω the loss associated with the inductor L2 and the RF_OUT pin can be estimated to be 10 × log(1 + 890/3700) = 0.95 dB compared to the optimum matched loop antenna without L2 and RF_OUT. The switch represents, in this mode at 433.92 MHz, about an inductor of 1.6 nH in series with the parallel connection of 2.5 pF and 2.0 kΩ. Since the impedance level at pin RX_TX1 in RX mode is about 50Ω there is only a negligible damping of the received signal by about 0.1 dB. When matching the LNA to the loop antenna the transmission line and the 7.6 pF part of C9 has to be taken into account when choosing the values of C11 and L1 so that the impedance seen from the loop antenna into the transmission line with the 7.6 pF capacitor connected is 50Ω. Since the loop antenna in RX mode is loaded by the LNA input impedance the loaded Q of the loop antenna is lowered by about a factor of 2 in RX mode hence the antenna bandwidth is higher than in TX mode. .

The RX and TX losses will be in the range of 1.0 dB there. 8. RF Transceiver in Full-duplex Mode The full-duplex mode of the ATA5823/ATA5824 is intended to be used for the purpose of security against a so called relay attack in passive entry systems. A property of such a passive entry system is that the user has not to push a key fob button like in a keyless entry system. If the user approaches to the door of the car it will wake up the key (in most cases with a low frequency 125 kHz signal) and the communication between the key and the car starts without interaction of the user and afterwards the door opens. Due to this new feature of the system there is a new possibility of entering a car without permission. One can trigger this communication, take the 125 kHz signal from the car, remodulate it on another carrier and transmit it over a much longer distance than intended by the system. Than receive this signal and remodulate it onto the 125 kHz carrier and retransmit this signal close to the user having the key fob with permission for the car. Such a system is called an RF-Relay and therefore this kind of attack is called relay attack. The high frequency signals of the ATA5823/ATA5824 could be treated the same way if only a half-duplex mode is used within a passive entry system. If using half-duplex RF transceivers, the attacker can switch the direction of the relay with a transmit power detector. 25 4829D–RKE–06/06 To prevent that the ATA5823/ATA5824 receives and transmit its RF-signals on the same frequency and at the same time. Since the attacker has then to receive and transmit RF signals at the same frequency and time it will be much more difficult to built the hardware for this kind of attack, since its own transmitted output power couples back to its receiver. This mode works as follows: Both transceivers transmit FSK with a modulation deviation of half the IF (a frequency deviation of about ±113 kHz), switches the image rejection in the receive path off and uses the transmit frequency as local oscillator for the receiver. If both transceivers send FSK-low or both send FSK-high, the resulting IF is close to zero and is filtered out by the IF-filter. Both receivers receive than a low-signal by using the ASK demodulator as receiver. If the transceivers send different symbols e.g. FSK-low/FSK-high or FSK-high/FSK-low the resulting IF is close to 226 kHz and the ASK demodulator receives a high-signal. Since the transceivers are synchronized at the beginning of the data transfer, they can calculate the transmitted data of the other transceiver from their own transmitted data and the data received from the ASK demodulator. To use that mode, the received power from the transmitter side of a transceiver should not couple with a to high magnitude to its LNA otherwise the receive path will be desensitized. Therefore, two different antennas for transmit and receive are used with good decoupling (see Figure 5-1 on page 8 and Figure 6-1 on page 9). Since defined packets are transmitted in FD-mode and the critical point in the transmission is the synchronization and not the data transfer, the sensitivity in FD-mode is defined for packets with 8 bytes of useful data (usually the response from a crypto-challenge response transmission) and for a Packet Error Rate PER of 5%. For the full-duplex mode the data rate is fixed to 5 Kbit/s The sensitivity of the receiver in full-duplex mode is dependant on the absolute power value and the phase of the power coupled from the PA to the LNA. Due to the phase dependency, three values are given in the Table 8-1, the first is the typical and the second and third one shows the sensitivity variation. Table 8-1. Typical Full-duplex Sensitivity Dependent on the Parasitic Received Power and Coupling Phase from the PA 433.92 MHz/Full-duplex Mode/5 Kbit/s PER = 5% at 3V, 25°C Typical Sensitivity/dBm –91 –96 –100 –103 –104 Sensitivity Variation/dBm –88.5/–92.5 –93.5/–97.5 –97.5/–101.5 –100.5/–104.5 –101.5/–105.5 Power from RFOUT at RFIN/dBm –30 –35 –40 –45 –50 The IC internal decoupling of the RFIN from RFOUT with a power amplifier load impedance optimized for +5dBm is 65 dB on a well designed PCB, hence the coupling is mainly due to the cross-coupling of the antennas. 26 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Table 8-2.

XTO The XTO is an amplitude regulated Pierce oscillator type with integrated load capacitances (2 × 18 pF with a tolerance of ±17%) hence CLmin = 7.4 pF and CLmax = 10.6 pF. The XTO oscillation frequency fXTO is the reference frequency FREF for the fractional-N synthesizer. When designing the system in terms of receiving and transmitting frequency offset the accuracy of the crystal and XTO have to be considered. The synthesizer can adjust the local oscillator frequency for the initial frequency error in fXTO. This is done at nominal supply voltage and temperature with the control registers 2 and 3 (see Table 12-7 on page 38 and Table 12-10 on page 39). The remaining local oscillator tolerance at nominal supply voltage and temperature is then < ±0.5 ppm. The XTO’s gm has very low influence of less than ±2 ppm on the frequency at nominal supply voltage and temperature. In a single channel system less than ±150 ppm should be corrected to avoid that harmonics of the CLK output disturb the receive mode. If the CLK is not used, or carefully layouted on the application PCB (as needed for multi channel systems), more than ±150 ppm can be compensated. The additional XTO pulling is only ±2 ppm, overtemperature and supply voltage. The XTAL versus temperature and its aging is then the main source of frequency error in the local oscillator. The XTO frequency depends on XTAL properties and the load capacitances CL1, 2 at pin XTAL1 and XTAL2. The pulling of fXTO from the nominal fXTAL is calculated using the following formula: Cm C LN – C L 6 P = ------- × ------------------------------------------------------------ × 10 ppm. 2 ( C 0 + C LN ) × ( C 0 + C L ) Cm is the crystal's motional, C0 the shunt and CLN the nominal load capacitance of the XTAL found in its datasheet. CL is the total actual load capacitance of the crystal in the circuit and consists of CL1 and CL2 in series connection. 27 4829D–RKE–06/06 Figure 9-1. XTAL with Load Capacitances Crystal equivalent circuit XTAL C0 Lm Cm Rm CL1 CL2 CL= CL1 × CL2/(CL1 + CL2) With C m ≤ 14 fF, C 0 ≥ 1.5 pF, C LN = 9 pF and C L = 7.4 pF to 10.6 pF the pulling amounts to P ≤ ±100 ppm and with Cm ≤ 7 fF, C0 ≥ 1.5 pF, CLN = 9 pF and CL = 7.4 pF to 10.6 pF the pulling is P ≤ ±50 ppm. Since typical crystals have less than ±50 ppm tolerance at 25°C, the compensation is not critical and can, in both cases, be done with the ±150 ppm. C0 of the XTAL has to be lower than CLmin/2 = 3.7 pF for a Pierce oscillator type in order to not enter the steep region of pulling versus load capacitance where there is a risk of an unstable oscillation. To ensure proper start-up behavior the small signal gain, and thus the negative resistance provided by this XTO at start is very large. For example oscillation starts up, even in worst case, with a crystal series resistance of 1.5 kΩ at C0 ≤2.2 pF with this XTO. The negative resistance is approximately given by ⎧ Z1 × Z3 + Z2 × Z3 + Z1 × Z2 × Z3 × gm ⎫ Re { XTOcore } = Re ⎨ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ⎬ Z Z1 + Z2 + Z3 + Z1 × Z2 × gm ⎩ ⎭ with Z1, Z2 as complex impedances at pin XTAL1 and XTAL2 hence Z1 = –j/(2 × π × fXTO × CL1) + 5Ω and Z2 = –j/(2 × π × fXTO × CL2) + 5Ω. Z3 consists of crystals C0 in parallel with an internal 110 kΩ resistor hence Z3 = –j/(2 × π × fXTO × C0) /110 kΩ, gm is the internal transconductance between XTAL1 and XTAL2 with typically 19 ms at 25°C. With fXTO = 13.5 MHz, gm = 19 ms, CL = 9 pF, C0 = 2.2 pF this results in a negative resistance of about 2 kΩ. The worst case for technological, supply voltage and temperature variations is then for C0 ≤ 2.2 pF always higher than 1.5 kΩ. Due to the large gain at start, the XTO is able to meet a very low start-up time. The oscillation start-up time can be estimated with the time constant τ . 2 τ = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2 2 4 × π × f m × C m × ( Re ( Z XTOcore ) + R m ) After 10 τ to 20 τ , an amplitude detector detects the oscillation amplitude and sets XTO_OK to High if the amplitude is large enough. This activates the CLK output if CLK_ON and CLK_EN in control register 3 are High (see Table 12-12 on page 39). Note that the necessary conditions of the DVCC voltage also have to be fulfilled (see Figure 9-2 on page 29 and Figure 10-1 on page 31). 28 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 To save current in IDLE and Sleep mode, the load capacitors partially are switched off in this modes with S1 and S2 seen in Figure 9-2 on page 29. It is recommended to use a crystal with C m = 3.0 fF to 7.0 fF, C LN = 9 pF, R m < 120 Ω a nd C0 = 1.0 pF to 2.2 pF. Lower values of Cm can be used, this increases slightly the start-up time. Lower values of C0 or higher values of Cm (up to 15 fF) can also be used, this has only little influence to pulling. Figure 9-2.

To determine the right content, the frequency at pin CLK, as well as the output frequency at RF_OUT in ASK mode can be measured, than the FREQ value can be calculated according to Table 9-1 so that fRF is exactly the desired radio frequency. 29 4829D–RKE–06/06 Table 9-1.

In a single channel system the use of FREQ = 3803 to 4053 ensures that harmonics of this signal do not disturb the receive mode. In a multichannel system the CLK signal can either be not used or carefully layouted on the application PCB. The supply voltage of the microcontroller must also be carefully blocked in a multichannel system. 9.1 Pin CLK Pin CLK is an output to clock a connected microcontroller. The clock frequency fCLK is calculated as follows: f XTO f CLK = ---------3 The signal at CLK output has a nominal 50% duty cycle. If the bit CLK_EN in control register 3 is set to 0, the clock is disabled permanently. If the bit CLK_EN is set to 1 and bit CLK_ON (control register 3) is set to 0, the clock is disabled as well. If bit CLK_ON is set to 1 and thus the clock is enabled if the Bit-check is ok (RX, RX Polling, FD mode (Slave)), an event on pin N_PWR_ON occurs or the bit Power_On in the status register is 1.

According to Figure 9-2 on page 29, this clock cycle TDCLK is derived from the crystal oscillator (XTO) in combination with a divider. f XTO f DCLK = ---------16 TDCLK controls the following application relevant parameters: • Timing of the polling circuit including bit-check • TX bit rate The clock cycle of the Bit-check and the TX bit rate depends on the selected bit-rate range (BR_Range) which is defined in control register 6 (see Table 12-19 on page 41) and XLim which is defined in control register 4 (see Table 12-16 on page 40). This clock cycle TXDCLK is defined by the following formulas for further reference: BR_Range ⇒ BR_Range 0: TXDCLK = 8 × BR_Range 1: TXDCLK = 4 × BR_Range 2: TXDCLK = 2 × BR_Range 3: TXDCLK = 1 × TDCLK × TDCLK × TDCLK × TDCLK × XLim XLim XLim XLim 10.

Pin VS1 is the supply voltage input for the range 2.15V to 3.6V and is used in battery applications using a single lithium 3V cell. Pin VS2 is the voltage input for the range 4.4V to 5.25V (car applications), in this case the voltage regulator V_REG regulates VS1 to typically 3.25V. If the voltage regulator is active, a blocking capacitor of 2.2 µF has to be connected to VS1. Pin VSINT is the voltage input for the Microcontroller_Interface and must be connected to the power supply of the microcontroller. The voltage range of VVSINT is 2.25V to 5.25V (see Figure 10-5 and Figure 10-6 on page 35). AVCC is the internal operation voltage of the RF transceiver and is feed via the switch SW_AVCC by VS1. AVCC must be blocked on pin AVCC with a 68 nF capacitor (see Figure 3-1 on page 6, Figure 4-1 on page 7, Figure 5-1 on page 8 and Figure 6-1 on page 9). DVCC is the internal operation voltage of the digital control logic and is fed via the switch SW_DVCC by VS1. DVCC must be blocked on pin DVCC with 68 nF (see Figure 3-1 on page 6, Figure 4-1 on page 7, Figure 5-1 on page 8 and Figure 6-1 on page 9). Pin PWR_ON is an input to switch on the transceiver (active high). Pin N_PWR_ON is an input for a push button and can also be used to switch on the transceiver (active low). For current consumption reasons it is recommended to set N_PWR_ON to GND only temporarily. Otherwise an additional current flows because of a 50 kΩ pull-up resistor. A voltage monitor generates the signal DVCC_OK if DVCC ≥ 1.6V typically. Figure 10-2.

In OFF mode AVCC and DVCC are disabled, resulting in very low power consumption (IS_OFF is typically ≤10 nA in the key fob application Figure 3-1 on page 6 and Figure 5-1 on page 8 and ≤0.5 µA in the car application Figure 4-1 on page 7 and Figure 6-1 on page 9). In OFF mode the transceiver is not programmable via the 4-wire serial interface. 10.2 IDLE Mode In IDLE mode AVCC and DVCC are connected to the battery voltage (VS1). From OFF mode the transceiver changes to IDLE mode if pin PWR_ON is set to 1 or pin N_PWR_ON is set to 0. This state transition is indicated by an interrupt at pin IRQ and the status bits Power_On = 1 or N_Power_On = 1. In IDLE mode the RF transceiver is disabled and the power consumption IIDLE_VS1,2 is about 270 µA (CLK output OFF VS1 = VS2 = 3V). The exact value of this current is strongly dependent on the application and the exact operation mode, therefore check the section “Electrical Characteristics” for the appropriate application case. Via the 4-wire serial interface a connected microcontroller can program the required parameter and enable the TX, RX polling, RX or FD mode.The transceiver can be set back to OFF mode by an OFF command via the 4-wire serial interface (the input level of pin PWR_ON must be 0 and pin N_PWR_ON = 1 before writing the OFF command) Table 10-1. 0 Control Register 1 OPM1 0 OPM0 0 Function IDLE mode OPM2 10.3 Reset Timing and Reset Logic If the transceiver is switched on (OFF mode to IDLE mode) DVCC and AVCC are ramping up as illustrated in Figure 10-3. The internal signal DVCC_RESET resets the digital control logic and sets the control register to default values. Bit DVCC_RST in the status register is set to 1. After VDVCC exceeds 1.6V (typically) and the start-up time of the XTO is elapsed, the output clock at pin CLK is available. DVCC_RST in the status register is set to 0 if VDVCC exceeds 1.6V, the start-up time of the XTO is elapsed and the status register is read via the 4-wire serial interface. If VDVCC drops below 1.6V (typically) and pin N_PWR_ON = 1 and pin PWR_ON = 0 the transceiver switches to OFF mode. 33 4829D–RKE–06/06 Figure 10-3.

Microcontroller Interface The microcontroller interface is a level converter which converts all internal digital signals which are referred to the DVCC voltage, into the voltage used by the microcontroller. Therefore, the pin VSINT can be connected to the supply voltage of the microcontroller in the case the microcontroller has another supply voltage than the ATA5823/ATA5824. 12. Digital Control Logic 12.1 Register Structure The configuration of the transceiver is stored in RAM cells. The RAM contains a 16 × 8-bit TX/RX data buffer and a 8 × 8-bit Control register and is write and readable via a 4-wire serial interface (CS, SCK, SDI_TMDI, SDO_TMDO). The 1 × 8-bit status register is not part of the RAM and is readable via the 4-wire serial interface. The RAM and the status information is stored as long as the transceiver is in any active mode (DVCC = VS1) and gets lost if the transceiver is in the OFF mode (DVCC = OFF). After the transceiver is turned on via pin PWR_ON = High or pin N_PWR_ON = Low the control registers are in the default state. 35 4829D–RKE–06/06 Figure 12-1.

With PWSELECT = 1 this resistor can also be used in normal half-duplex TX operation to adjust the output power for production tolerances. 12.3.9 Status Register (ADR 16) The status register indicates the current status of the transceiver and is readable via the 4-wire serial interface. Setting Power_On or an event on N_Power_On is indicated by an IRQ. Reading the status register resets the bits Power_On, DVCC_RST and the IRQ. Table 12-26. Status Register Status Bit Function Status of pin N_PWR_On Pin N_PWR_ON = 0 → N_Power_On = 1 Pin N_PWR_ON = 1 → N_Power_On = 0 (Figure 12-3 on page 45) N_Power_On Power_On Indicates that the transceiver was woken up by pin PWR_ON (rising edge on pin PWR_ON). During Power_On = 1, the bit CLK_ON in control register 3 is set to 1 (Figure 12-4 on page 46). DVCC_RST is set to 1 if the supply voltage of the RAM (VDVCC) was too low and the information in the RAM may be lost. DVCC_RST = 0 → supply voltage of the RAM ok DVCC_RST = 1 → supply voltage of the RAM was too low (typically VDVCC < 1.6V) If the transceiver changes from OFF mode to IDLE mode, DVCC_RST will be set to 1. Reading the Status register resets DVCC_RST to 0. DVCC_RST 43 4829D–RKE–06/06 12.4 Pin N_PWR_ON To switch the transceiver from OFF to IDLE mode, pin N_PWR_ON must be set to 0 (maximum 0.2 × VVS2) for at least TN_PWR_ON_IRQ (see Figure 12-2). The transceiver recognizes the negative edge and switches on DVCC and AVCC. If VDVCC exceeds 1.6V (typically) and the XTO is settled, the digital control logic is active and sets the status bit N_Power_On to 1, an interrupt is issued (TN_PWR_ON_IRQ) and the output clock on pin CLK is available. If the level on pin N_PWR_ON was set to 1 before the interrupt is issued, the transceiver stays in OFF mode. Note: It is not possible to set the transceiver to OFF-mode by setting pin N_PWR_ON to 1. If pin N_PWR_ON is not used, it should be left open because of the internal pull-up resistor Figure 12-2. Timing Pin N_PWR_ON, Status Bit N_Power_On N_PWR_ON DVCC, AVCC 1.6 V (typ) CLK TN_PWR_ON_IRQ N_Power_On (Status Register) IRQ OFF Mode IDLE Mode If the transceiver is in any of the active modes (IDLE, TX, RX, RX_Polling, FD), an integrated debounce logic is active. If there is an event on pin N_PWR_ON, a debounce counter is set to 0 (T = 0) and started. The status is updated, an interrupt is issued and the debounce counter is stopped after reaching the counter value T = 8195 × TDCLK. An event on N_PWR_ON before reaching T = 8195 × TDCLK stops the debounce counter. While the debounce counter is running, the bit CLK_ON in control register 3 is set to 1. The interrupt is deleted after reading the status register or executes the command Delete_IRQ. If pin N_PWR_ON is not used, it can be left open because of an internal pull-up resistor (typically 50 kΩ). 44 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Figure 12-3.

The transceiver recognizes the positive edge and switches on DVCC and AVCC. If VDVCC exceeds 1.6V (typically) and the XTO is settled, the digital control logic is active and sets the status bit Power_On to 1, an interrupt is issued (TPWR_ON_IRQ_1) and the output clock on pin CLK is available. If the level on pin PWR_ON was set to 0 before the interrupt is issued, the transceiver stays in OFF mode. If the transceiver is in any of the active modes (IDLE, RX, RX_Polling, TX, FD), a positive edge on pin PWR_ON sets Power_On to 1 (after TPWR_ON_IRQ_2). The state transition Power_On 0 →1 generates an interrupt. If Power_On is still 1 during the positive edge on pin PWR_ON, no interrupt is issued. Power_On and the interrupt is deleted after reading the status register. 45 4829D–RKE–06/06 During Power_On = 1, the bit CLK_EN in control register 3 is set to 1. Note: It is not possible to set the transceiver to OFF mode by setting pin PWR_ON to 0. If pin PWR_ON is not used, it must be connected to GND. Figure 12-4.

Transceiver Configuration The configuration of the transceiver takes place via a 4-wire serial interface (CS, SCK, SDI_TMDI, SDO_TMDO) and is organized in 8-bit units. The configuration is initiated with a 8-bit command. While shifting the command into pin SDI_TMDI, the number of bytes in the TX/RX data buffer are available on pin SDO_TMDO. The read and write commands are followed by one or more 8-bit data units. Each 8-bit data transmission begins with the MSB. 13.1 Command: Read TX/RX Data Buffer During a RX operation the user can read the received bytes in the TX/RX data buffer successively. Figure 13-1.

Bit 0 to bit 4 describes the target address when reading or writing to a control or status register. Bit 0 to bit 4 in the command Write TX/RX Data Buffer defines the value N (0 ≤ N ≤ 16). The TX operation only will be started if the number of bytes in the TX buffer ≥ N. This function makes sure that the datastream will be sent without gaps. The TX operation only will be started if at least 1 byte are in the TX buffer. This means that N = 0 and N = 1 have the same function. In all other commands Bit 0 to Bit 4 have no effect and should be set to 0 for compatibility reasons with future products. 49 4829D–RKE–06/06 Table 13-1.

Data is transmitted/received bit by bit in synchronization with the serial clock. Pin CS_POL defines the active level of the CS: Table 13-2.

Operation Modes 14.1 RX Operation The transceiver is set to RX operation with the bits OPM0, OPM1 and OPM2 in control register 1 Table 14-1. OPM2 0 0 Control Register 1 OPM1 1 1 OPM0 0 1 Function RX polling mode RX mode The transceiver is designed to consume less than 1 mA in RX operation while being sensitive to signals from a corresponding transmitter. This is achieved via the polling circuit. This circuits enable the signal path periodically for a short time. During this time the Bit-check logic verifies the presence of a valid transmitter signal. Only if a valid signal is detected the transceiver remains active and transfers the data to the connected microcontroller. This transfer take place either via the TX/RX data buffer or via the pin SDO_TMDO. If there is no valid signal present the transceiver is in sleep mode most of the time resulting in low current consumption. This condition is called RX polling mode. A connected microcontroller can be disabled during this time. All relevant parameters of the polling logic can be configured by the connected microcontroller. This flexibility enables the user to meet the specifications in terms of current consumption, system response time, data rate etc. In RX mode the RF transceiver is enabled permanently and the Bit-check logic verifies the presence of a valid transmitter signal. If a valid signal is detected the transceiver transfers the data to the connected microcontroller. This transfer takes place either via the TX/RX data buffer or via the pin SDO_TMDO. 14.1.1 RX Polling Mode If the transceiver is in RX polling mode, it stays in a continuous cycle of three different modes. In sleep mode, the RF transceiver is disabled for the time period TSleep while consuming low current of IS = IIDLE_X. During the start-up period, TStartup_PLL and TStartup_Sig_Proc, all signal processing circuits are enabled and settled. In the following Bit-check mode, the incoming data stream is analyzed bit by bit versus a valid transmitter signal. If no valid signal is present, the transceiver is set back to sleep mode after the period TBit-check. This period varies check by check as it is a statistical process. An average value for TBit-check is given in the electrical characteristics. During TStartup_PLL the current consumption is IS = IRX_X. During TStartup_Sig_Proc and TBit-check the current consumption is I S = I Startup_Sig_Proc_X . The condition of the transceiver is indicated on pin RX_ACTIVE (see Figure 14-1). The average current consumption in RX polling mode IPoll is different in battery application or car application. To calculate IPoll the index X must be replaced by VS1,2 in battery application or VS2 in car application (see section “Electrical Characteristics: General” on page 72). I IDLE_X × T Sleep + I Startup_PLL_X × T Startup_PLL + I RX_X × ( T Startup_Sig_Proc + T Bitcheck ) I Poll = -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------T Sleep + T Startup_PLL + T Startup_Sig_Proc + T Bitcheck 52 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 To save current it is recommended CLK be disabled during RX polling mode. IP does not include the current of the Microcontroller_Interface IVSINT. If CLK is enabled during the RX polling mode the current consumption is calculated as follows: I S_Poll = I Poll + I VSINT During TSleep, TStartup_PLL and TStartup_Sig_Proc the transceiver is not sensitive to a transmitter signals. To guarantee the reception of a transmitted command the transmitter must start the telegram with an adequate preburst. The required length of the preburst TPreburst depends on the polling parameters TSleep, TStartup_PLL, TStartup_Sig_Proc and TBit-check. Thus, TBit-check depends on the actual bit rate and the number of bits (NBit-check) to be tested. T Preburst ≥ T Sleep + T Startup_PLL + T Startup_Sig_Proc + T Bitcheck 14.1.2 Sleep Mode The length of period TSleep is defined by the 5-bit word sleep in control register 4, the extension factor XSleep defined by the bit XSleep in control register 4 and the basic clock cycle TDCLK. It is calculated to be: T Sleep = Sleep × 1024 × T DCLK × X Sleep In US and European applications, the maximum value of TSleep is about 38 ms if XSleep is set to 1 (which is done by setting the bit XSleep in control register 4 to 0). The time resolution is about 1.2 ms in that case. The sleep time can be extended to about 300 ms by setting XSleep to 8 (which is done by setting XSleep in control register 4 to 1), the time resolution is then about 9.6 ms. 14.1.3 Start-up Mode During TStartup_PLL the PLL is enabled and starts up. If the PLL is locked, the signal processing circuit starts up (TStartup_Sig_Proc). After the start-up time all circuits are in stable condition and ready to receive. 53 4829D–RKE–06/06 Figure 14-1.

The bit-rate range is defined by bit Baud0 and Baud1 in Control Register 6. Bit-check Mode: The incomming data stream is analyzed. If the timing indicates a valid transmitter signal, the control bit CLK_ON and OPM0 are set to 1 and the transceiver is set to receiving mode. Otherwise it is set to Sleep mode or to Start-up mode. Output level on pin RX_ACTIVE -> High IS = IStartup_Sig_Proc_X TBit-check NO Bit check ok ? TBit-check: Depends on the result of the bit check. If the bit check is ok, TBit-check depends on the number of bits to be checked (NBit-check) and on the utilized data rate. If the bit check fails, the average time period for that check depends on the selected bit-rate range and on TXDCLK . The bit-rate range is defined by bit Baud0 and Baud1 in Control Register6. YES OPM0=1 ? YES NO NO TSLEEP=0 ? YES T_MODE = 0 AND P_MODE = 0 ?

YES NO 54 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 14.1.4 Bit-check Mode In Bit-check mode the incoming data stream is examined to distinguish between a valid signal from a corresponding transmitter and signals due to noise. This is done by subsequent time frame checks where the distance between 2 signal edges are continuously compared to a programmable time window. The maximum count of this edge to edge test before the transceiver switches to receiving mode is also programmable. Bit-check Configuration Assuming a modulation scheme that contains 2 edges per bit, two time frame checks are verifying one bit. This is valid for Manchester, Bi-phase and most other modulation schemes. The maximum count of bits to be checked can be set to 0, 3, 6 or 9 bits via the variable NBit-check in control register 5. This implies 0, 6, 12 and 18 edge to edge checks respectively. If NBit-check is set to a higher value, the transceiver is less likely to switch to receiving mode due to noise. In the presence of a valid transmitter signal, the Bit-check takes less time if NBit-check is set to a lower value. In RX polling mode, the Bit-check time is not dependent on NBit-check if no valid signal is present. Figure 14-2 shows an example where 3 bits are tested successful. 14.1.5 Figure 14-2. Timing Diagram for Complete Successful Bit-check (Number of checked bits: 3) RX_ACTIVE Bit-check ok Bit-check 1/2 bit 1/2 bit 1/2 bit 1/2 bit 1/2 bit 1/2 bit Demod_Out TStartup_Sig_Proc Start-up mode TBit-check Bit-check mode Receiving mode According to Figure 14-3, the time window for the Bit-check is defined by two separate time limits. If the edge to edge time tee is in between the lower Bit-check limit TLim_min and the upper Bit-check limit TLim_max, the check will be continued. If tee is smaller than limit TLim_min or exceeds TLim_max, the Bit-check will be terminated and the transceiver switches to sleep mode. Figure 14-3. Valid Time Window for Bit-check 1/fSignal Demod_Out tee TLim_min TLim_max 55 4829D–RKE–06/06 For the best noise immunity it is recommended to use a low span between TLim_min and TLim_max. This is achieved using a fixed frequency at a 50% duty cycle for the transmitter preburst. A “11111...” or a “10101...” sequence in Manchester or bi-phase is a good choice concerning that advice. A good compromise between sensitivity and susceptibility to noise regarding the expected edge to edge time tee is a time window of ±38%. To get the maximum sensitivity the time window should be ±50% and then NBit-check ≥ 6. Using preburst patterns that contain various edge to edge time periods, the Bit-check limits must be programmed according to the required span. The Bit-check limits are determined by means of the formula below: TLim_min = Lim_min × TXDCLK TLim_max = (Lim_max -1) × TXDCLK Lim_min is defined by the bits Lim_min 0 to Lim_min 5 in control register 5. Lim_max is defined by the bits Lim_max 0 to Lim_max 5 in control register 6. Using the above formulas, Lim_min and Lim_max can be determined according to the required TLim_min, TLim_max and TXDCLK. The time resolution defining TLim_min and TLim_max is TXDCLK. The minimum edge to edge time tee is defined according to the section “Receiving Mode” on page 58. The lower limit should be set to Lim_min ≥ 10. The maximum value of the upper limit is Lim_max = 63. Figure 14-4, Figure 14-5 and Figure 14-6 on page 57 illustrate the Bit-check for the Bit-check limits Lim_min = 14 and Lim_max = 24. The signal processing circuits are enabled during TStartup_PLL and TStartup_Sig_Proc. The output of the ASK/FSK demodulator (Demod_Out) is undefined during that period. When the Bit-check becomes active, the Bit-check counter is clocked with the cycle TXDCLK. Figure 14-4 shows how the Bit-check proceeds if the Bit-check counter value CV_Lim is within the limits defined by Lim_min and Lim_max at the occurrence of a signal edge. In Figure 14-5 on page 57 the Bit-check fails as the value CV_Lim is lower than the limit Lim_min. The Bit-check also fails if CV_Lim reaches Lim_max. This is illustrated in Figure 14-6 on page 57.

The Bit-check is a statistical process and TBit-check varies for each check. Therefore, an average value for TBit-check is given in the electrical characteristics. TBit-check depends on the selected bit-rate range and on TXDCLK. A higher bit-rate range causes a lower value for TBit-check resulting in a lower current consumption in RX polling mode. In the presence of a valid transmitter signal, TBit-check is dependent on the frequency of that signal, fSignal, and the count of the bits, NBit-check. A higher value for NBit-check thereby results in a longer period for TBit-check requiring a higher value for the transmitter pre-burst TPreburst. 57 4829D–RKE–06/06 14.1.7 Receiving Mode If the Bit-check was successful for all bits specified by NBit-check, the transceiver switches to receiving mode. To activate a connected microcontroller, bit CLK_ON in control register 3 is set to 1. An interrupt is issued at pin IRQ if the control bits T_MODE = 0 and P_MODE = 0. If the transparent mode is active (T_MODE = 1) and the level on pin CS is inactive (no data transfer via the serial interface), the RX data stream is available on pin SDO_TMDO (Figure 14-7). Figure 14-7. Receiving Mode (TMODE = 1) Preburst Bit-check ok Startbit Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3 Demod_Out 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 SDO_TMDO Bit-check mode Receiving mode If the transparent mode is inactive (T_MODE = 0), the received data stream is buffered in the TX/RX data buffer (see Figure 14-8 on page 59). The TX/RX data buffer is only usable for Manchester and Bi-phase coded signals. It is permanently possible to transfer the data from the data buffer via the 4-wire serial interface to a microcontroller (see Figure 13-1 on page 47). Buffering of the data stream: After a successful Bit-check, the transceiver switches from Bit-check mode to receiving mode. In receiving mode the TX/RX data buffer control logic is active and examines the incoming data stream. This is done, like in the Bit-check, by subsequent time frame checks where the distance between two edges is continuously compared to a programmable time window as illustrated in Figure 14-8 on page 59. Only two distances between two edges in Manchester and Bi-phase coded signals are valid (T and 2T). The limits for T are the same as used for the Bit-check. They can be programmed in control register 5 and 6 (Lim_min, Lim_max). The limits for 2T are calculated as follows: Lower limit of 2T: Lim_min_2T = ( Lim_min + Lim_max ) – ( Lim_max – Lim_min ) ⁄ 2 T Lim_min_2T = Lim_min_2T × T XDCLK Upper limit of 2T: Lim_max_2T = ( Lim_min + Lim_max ) + ( Lim_max – Lim_min ) ⁄ 2 T Lim_max_2T = (Lim_max_2T – 1 ) × T XDCLK If the result of Lim_min_2T or Lim_max_2T is not an integer value, it will be round up. If the TX/RX data buffer control logic detects the start bit, the data stream is written in the TX/RX data buffer byte by byte. The start bit is part of the first data byte and must be different from the bits of the preburst. If the preburst consists of a sequence of “00000...”, the start bit must be a 1. If the preburst consists of a sequence of “11111...”, the start bit must be a 0. 58 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 If the data stream consists of more than 16 bytes, a buffer overflow occurs and the TX/RX data buffer control logic overwrites the bytes already stored in the TX/RX data buffer. So it is very important to ensure that the data is read in time so that no buffer overflow occurs in that case (see Figure 13-1 on page 47). There is a counter that indicates the number of received bytes in the TX/RX data buffer (see section “Transceiver Configuration” on page 47). If a byte is transferred to the microcontroller, the counter is decremented, if a byte is received, the counter is incremented. The counter value is available via the 4-wire serial interface. An interrupt is issued if the counter while counting forwards reaches the value defined by the control bits IR0 and IR1 in control register 1. Figure 14-8.

MSB LSB Readable via 4-wire serial interface If the TX/RX data buffer control logic detects a bit error, an interrupt is issued and the transceiver is set back to the start-up mode (see Figure 14-1 on page 54 and Figure 14-9). Bit error: Note: a) tee < TLim_min or TLim_max < tee < TLim_min_2T or tee > TLim_max_2T b) Logical error (no edge detected in the bit center) The byte consisting of the bit error will not be stored in the TX/RX data buffer. Thus it is not available via the 4-wire serial interface. Writing the control register 1, 4, 5, 6 or 7 during receiving mode resets the TX/RX data buffer control logic and the counter which indicates the number of received bytes. If the bits OPM0 and OPM1 are still 1 and OPM2 is still 0 after writing to a control register, the transceiver changes to the start-up mode (start-up signal processing). Figure 14-9.

These values are optimized for maximum sensitivity. Note that since these Limits are optimized for sensitivity the number of checked bit NBit-check has to be at least 6 to prevent the circuit from waking up too often in polling mode due to noise.

Table 14-4. OPM2 0 Control Register 1 OPM1 0 OPM0 1 Function TX mode Before activating the TX mode, the TX parameters (bit rate, modulation scheme...) must be selected as illustrated in Figure 14-10 on page 62. The bit rate depends on Baud0 and Baud1 in control register 6 and TX0 to TX5 in control register 7 (see section “Control Register” on page 37). The modulation is selected with ASK_NFSK in control register 4. The FSK frequency deviation is fixed to about ±19 kHz (see Table 9-1 on page 30). If P_Mode is set to 1, the Manchester modulator is disabled and pattern mode is active (NRZ, see Table 14-5 on page 64). After the transceiver is set to TX mode the start-up mode is active and the PLL is enabled. If the PLL is locked, the TX mode is active. If the transceiver is in start-up or TX mode, the TX/RX data buffer can be loaded via the 4-wire serial interface. After N bytes are in the buffer and the TX mode is active, the transceiver starts transmitting automatically (beginning with the MSB). Bit 0 to Bit 4 in the command Write TX/RX Data Buffer defines the value N (0 ≤ N ≤ 16; see section “Command Structure” on page 49). While transmitting, it is permanently possible to load new data in the TX/RX data buffer. To prevent a buffer overflow or interruptions during transmitting the user must ensure that data is loaded at the same speed as it is transmitted. There is a counter that indicates the number of bytes to be transmitted (see section “Transceiver Configuration” on page 47). If a byte is loaded, the counter is incremented, if a byte is transmitted, the counter is decremented. The counter value is available via the 4-wire serial interface. An IRQ is issued if the counter reaches the value defined by the control bits IR0 and IR1 in control register 1. Note: Writing to the control register 1, 4, 5, 6 or 7 during TX mode, resets the TX/RX data buffer and the counter which indicates the number of bytes to be transmitted. If T_Mode in control register 1 is set to 1, the transceiver is in TX transparent mode. In this mode the TX/RX data buffer is disabled and the TX data stream must be applied on pin SDI_TMDI.

In FD mode 2 transceiver exchange the content of the TX buffer simultaneously. One transceiver must be configured as master and one as slave. Table 14-6. OPM2 1 1 Control Register 1 OPM1 0 1 OPM0 1 1 Function Full-duplex mode (Master) Full-duplex mode (Slave) Before activating FD mode in both transceivers, the bit rate must be selected in control register 6 (Baud1 = 0, Baud0 = 1). Additionally, in the slave the limits for the Bit-check and the number of bits to be checked during the Bit-check NBit-check must be adjusted in control register 5 and 6 (Lim_min0 ... Lim_min5, Lim_max0 ... Lim_max5, BitChk0, BitChk1). After activating the FD mode in control register 1, both transceivers are in the startup mode. During the startup mode, in master and slave, the TX data stream can be written in the TX buffer. In the master the TX data stream consists of preburst, startbit, synchronization pattern (3 bytes) and maximally 8 bytes of data. The preburst contains a sequence of “11111...”. The minimum applicable preburst length is 15 bits and can be extended in 8 bit steps up to 95 bits. The value of the start bit is fixed and must be a 0. The position of the start bit is the LSB in the last byte of the preburst. The synchronization pattern contains 3 bytes with a fixed value (Byte1: FF hex, Byte2: 00 hex, Byte3: 00 hex). The data block is user defined and contains maximally 8 bytes. If the preburst contains more than 39 bits the area for the data block will be equally reduced (Figure 14-12 on page 65.) In the slave the TX data stream consists of the synchronization pattern (3 bytes) and also maximally 8 bytes of data. The synchronization pattern contains 3 bytes with a fixed value (Byte1: 00 hex, Byte2: 7F hex, Byte3: FF hex). The data block is user defined and contains maximally 8 bytes (Figure 14-12 on page 65). The length of the data block must be equal in the master and slave. 64 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 If the time TStartup-PLL-fd (798.5 × TDCLK) is elapsed the PLL is enabled and locked. The master activates the power amplifier (PA) and starts transmitting the preburst, startbit, synchronization pattern and data block, when the PLL is locked and at least N bytes are in the TX Buffer. Bit 0 to bit 4 in the command Write TX/RX Data Buffer defines the value N (0 ≤ N ≤ 16; see section “Command Structure” on page 49). If the PLL is locked, the slave activates the PA and enables the analog signal processing. After TStartup-sig-proc-fd (546 × TDCLK) the analog signal processing is settled and the slave begins with the Bit-check. If the Bit-check was successful, the start bit was detected and at least N Bytes are in the TX Buffer, the slave starts transmitting the synchronization pattern and the data block. While transmitting the synchronization pattern, a synchronization procedure synchronizes both transceivers. Thus master and slave are synchronized while transmitting the data block. If the TX buffer is empty, an interrupt will be issued and the PA will be switched off after the time TDelay (168 × TDCLK). TDelay is implemented because of different internal delays in the RX signal path in master and slave. While transmitting the data block, the receiving data is EX-OR-ed with the transmitting data and the result is written in the RX Buffer. Thus, after the FD operation the TX data of the slave is in the RX buffer of the master and the TX data of the master is in the RX Buffer of the slave. After recognizing the interrupt, the microcontroller can read out the received data from the TX/RX data buffer. During writing the command “Read TX/RX Data Buffer” the number of received bytes in the buffer is issued on pin SDO_TMDO. After reading the TX/RX Data Buffer the transceiver should be set to the IDLE mode. Figure 14-12.

A proper data transfer takes place if the FD mode is enabled in the slave before it is enabled in the master. If the FD mode is enabled in the master before it is enabled in the slave, a maximum delay TFD_sync is allowed for a proper operation. TFD_sync depends on the preburst length and the number of bits to be checked during the Bit-check. This is calculated as follows: TFD_sync < TPreburst - TStartup-sig-proc-fd - TBit-check-min Table 14-7. TBit-check-min NBit-check 3 6 (recommended) 9 TBit-check-min 4 × 168 × TDCLK 7 × 168 × TDCLK 10 × 168 × TDCLK This means, to get a extended time period for enabling the FD mode, increase the preburst length in the master and reduce NBit-check in the slave. The reference points for TFD_sync are the sampling edge (pin SCK) for the LSB while writing control register 1. For a proper operation in the slave, a wake-up due to noise must be prevent (bit check + start bit ok). To achieve this for the slave the following adjustments are recommended: 1. Set NBIT-check ≥ 6 2. Start FD mode in master and slave as simultaneously as possible. 66 ATA5823/ATA5824 4829D–RKE–06/06 ATA5823/ATA5824 Figure 14-13.

If a specific operating condition occurs, pin IRQ is set to a high level. If an interrupt occurs, it is recommended to delete the interrupt immediately by reading the status register, thus the next possible interrupt doesn’t get lost. If the Interrupt pin doesn’t switch to a low level by reading the status register, the interrupt was triggered by the RX/TX data buffer. In this case, read or write the RX/TX data buffer according to Table 14-8. Table 14-8.
